yes there used to be taz bolingo and recently another one i am forgetting the name but it does not go far as producers want sex before producing them and as usual in a lot you always have some who would not mind, and then those who say no to be more vocal and mess it up

Yup, Grand-père Bozi Boziana deserves a special award for how much exposure he gave to talented female artists The most successful all-women African band was/is Les Amazones of Guinée. They've been around for over 30 years, and are exactly as their name suggests- Amazones. Intimidating and very talented A female band has to be intimidating in Africa, especially DRC to be respected
